Hextraction Contraption Tile

A contrabulous up tile for Hextraction.

This is a rather complicated design that sort of works. In concept, it was supposed to be a mechanical tile that could be wound up and slowly rotate - letting balls pass in interesting and mesmerizing ways. In practice, this tile rotates a little and shakes the board as it quickly unwinds.

It's hard to print, difficult to assemble, and barely works. It's an awful machine that you will ultimately hate.

In short: A contraption.

Rules: Once per turn: You may wind up this tile.

Printing: I printed everything in PETG at .15mm layer height. Parts are arranged in the colors I printed them. The spring requires support, but it's the only part that does so. I do not recommend printing the spring in PLA.

Assembly: Watch the assembly video.

Hardware: 3x M2x4mm socket cap screws 4x M2x6mm socket cap screws 6x M2 washer 6x M2x12mm socket cap screw 2x M2x8mm socket cap screw 1x M3x8mm button head screw

If you think I'd hate it, Why'd ya make it?

Hey man, can you upload the not-stiffer spring? The one that is in the "Silver Parts" STL is very different than the one in the video and I had a really hard time fitting it in the spinner part.

I've added a thinner spring (1.5mm vs 1.75mm).
